About this person

Hannah Maynard was a Canadian photographer best known for her portrait work and experimental photography involving photomontage and multiple exposures. Her studio also functioned as site of creative exploration, where she engaged with new photographic techniques and technologies as they emerged. Many of her photographs are self-portraits, or include her family as subjects. Over the course of nearly five decades, her studio documented a rapidly growing Victoria, producing images that ranged from formal portraits to inventive staged compositions. She also photographed people using techniques that made them appear as statuary: on columns or posing as if they were made of stone.
